- Julian is interested in only two goods: good X and good Y and has M dollars to spend (and always spends it all). His uncle Paul is rich and he offered him 1000 dollars as a present but Julian did not take it and chose to just spend his own money. Julian's demand function for good X and the demand function for good Y are given respectively by XJ = 32800/(10Px + Py) and Y₁ = 3280/(10Px + Py). What is Julian's spending money "M"?Let x and y denote the amount of goods X and Y. Find the demand functions of X (do not need to find that of Y) when your preferences are represented by the utility function U = x + xy + y. Is X normal good? Can you confirm law of demand for X? What is the relationship of X with Y? Answer all of them by using the demand curve you derivedConsider two consumers, A and B, who consume two goods, x and y. Assume that the utility function for A is U₁ = A₁ and the utility function for B is UB = XBYB. Consumer A is endowed with 10 units of x an 10 units of y. Consumer B is endowed with 10 units of x and 40 units of y. Assume the price of y is set to $1. What is the expression for Consumer A's demand for x?

- Consider a market with two goods, x and z. The consumer’s utility function is U = x^0.2z^0.8 A. Derive the demand function for x and z. B. Let ? = 2, = 4 and = 50. Find the equilibrium quantities demanded of x and z.You are choosing between two goods, X and Y, and your marginal utility from each is as shown in the table below. If your income is $9 and the prices of X and Y are $2 and $1, respectively, what quantities of each will you purchase to maximize utility? What total utility will you realize? Assume that, other things remaining unchanged, the price of X falls to $1. What quantities of X and Y will you now purchase? Using the two prices and quantities for X, derive a demand schedule (price–quantity-demanded table) for X.Let a1 and x2 denote the quantities consumed. The consumer's preferences are represented by the utility function: U (r1, 22) = V+ VT2. Suppose the consumer has income m =100 and that the prices for the two goods are pi -2 and p2=8. Calculate the optimal quantity demanded for good 1.
- The demand function for a particular good is x = a + bp. What are the associated direct and indirect utility functions?Economics Suppose that an individual receives utility from two goods X and Y and his utility function is given by: u = -1/X –1/Y. a) Derive the Marshallian and Hicksian demand functions for X and Y. b) How would you determine whether X and Y are gross substitutes or gross complements? c) How would you determine whether X and Y are net substitutes or net complements?Suppose that i’s preferences over goods x and y are represented by the following utility function Ui(x, y)=x^0.8·y^0.2. Let m denote the consumer’s income, p denote the price of good x and let the price of good y equal 1. a) Find the Marshallian demand functions for goods x and y. b) Show how each of the demand function is affected by a change in the price of good x. c) Which of the goods is an inferior good?
